Who we help
Every house comes with a story
Most of the homeowners we work with are dealing with something bigger than the house itself. We take the time to understand it.
Falling behind on payments
When payments have slipped and the letters keep coming, a firm offer and a set closing date give you a clear path forward before options narrow.
Back property taxes
Taxes, penalties, and liens can pile up quickly. They're paid from the sale at closing, so nothing comes out of your pocket up front.
Problem tenants
Late rent, property damage, or an eviction that drags on. We can buy with tenants in place, so you can step away from being the landlord.
Costly repairs
A roof, foundation, or fire or water damage you can't afford to fix. Sell as it is, along with anything left inside.
Vacant property
An empty house still costs taxes, insurance, and upkeep, and it can attract break-ins. We take that weight off your shoulders.
Code violations
Notices and fines from the city that keep adding up. We buy houses with open violations, so you don't have to make the repairs yourself.
Divorce or a life change
Separation, relocation, or downsizing. A simple, private sale with a date everyone can plan around.
Owning from far away
Managing a property from another city or state is hard. We handle the walkthrough locally and close remotely when needed.
How it works
Three steps from first call to closing
Tell us about the property
Complete the form or give us a call. We'll ask a few questions about the house, your timing, and what matters most to you.
Receive a written offer
After a short walkthrough, we present a written cash offer and explain exactly how we arrived at the number. Take your time to decide.
Close on your date
A licensed Missouri title company handles the closing. You receive your funds at closing, on the date you choose.
Our approach
Selling a house is a big decision. You deserve a clear offer, honest answers, and the time to decide.
Heart and Stone was built on two ideas: care for the people we work with, and a foundation they can count on.
Local and experienced
Our team has bought, sold, renovated, and rented property in the Kansas City area for over 16 years.
Funded and ready
We purchase with our own capital and private funding partners, so your sale doesn't wait on a buyer's bank approval.
A transparent offer
Every offer is in writing, and we show you the numbers behind it: estimated value, repairs, and costs.
No pressure
No same-day deadlines and no obligation. If our offer isn't right for you, we'll tell you about your other options.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
How do you determine your offer?
We look at what comparable homes nearby have sold for, the repairs the house needs, and the costs of buying, holding, and reselling. We walk you through each number so you can see how we got there.
Do I need to make repairs or clean out the house?
No. We buy houses in their current condition. Take what you want and leave the rest.
Are there any fees or commissions?
There are no agent commissions. Closing costs are spelled out in your written offer before you agree to anything, so you know your take-home amount.
How soon can we close?
On your schedule. Once we have a signed agreement and clear title, we set the closing for the date that works for you, whether that's a few weeks or a few months out.
Can you buy a house that's in probate or was inherited?
Yes. The personal representative or the heirs sign, and we coordinate with your estate attorney and the court's timeline.
What if the house has tenants?
We can buy with tenants in place. We'll review the leases with you before we make an offer.
Is there any obligation if I request an offer?
None. Requesting an offer is free, and you're welcome to say no.
